Synthetic biology will change our lives through several fields like medicine (synthetic DNA, cheaper drugs, targeted drug delivery sys, biosensors and stem cell therapies); metabolically designed microorganisms and optimized photovoltaic systems (artificial leaves) for the production of biobased energy, fuels and other biobased products; Biosensors for rapid detection in military applications." | Synthetic biology will change our lives through several fields like medicine (synthetic DNA, cheaper drugs, targeted drug delivery sys, biosensors and stem cell therapies); metabolically designed microorganisms and optimized photovoltaic systems (artificial leaves) for the production of biobased energy, fuels and other biobased products; Biosensors for rapid detection in military applications." |
